African Stock Markets

Live stock, forex and macro data from Africa's fastest-growing economies

Last updated: 38 minutes ago

Africa's stock markets are delivering returns that most European investors don't know about. The Ghana Stock Exchange has delivered triple-digit gains in 2025, Nigerian equities continue their multi-year rally fuelled by banking sector profits and currency reforms, Egypt's EGX is surging on economic reform momentum, and East Africa — from Nairobi to Dar es Salaam — offers stable growth driven by the region's leading financial institutions. Morocco's Casablanca exchange adds North African diversification.

This page tracks 39 African stocks across seven exchanges, 7 currency pairs relevant to European and American investors, and compares year-to-date performance against the AEX, DAX, CAC 40 and FTSE. Data is sourced from EODHD and updated every hour during trading sessions.
